Course Description
|
Finance and financial markets are a significant focus of actions and policies to address climate change. These actions and policies include the fossil fuel divestment movement, private standards, regulatory taxonomies for sustainable finance, rules regulating corporate disclosures about climate change, and banking and insurance regulators addressing issues of climate-related systemic risk. Both public and private institutions issue green and sustainable bonds and develop investment funds which emphasize sustainability. The class examines a range of issues relating to the relationship between climate change and finance. The class suits students who are interested in environmental law and/or ESG (environmental, social and governance) or compliance. Course materials are provided on the course website.
